the Department of [and Housing] HOUSING AND Community Development

means of egress or ingress, in residential, industrial,
commercial, institutional or public buildings; and any other
elements, glazed or to be glazed, wherein the use of other than

as the Secretary of the Department of Housing and Community
Development may determine after notice and hearings as required
by [the] Title 10, Subtitle 1 of the State Government Article;
whether or not the glazing in the doors, panels, enclosures and
other elements is transparent. The Secretary may except panels
which are less than two hundred square inches and which are so
located that the use of other than safety glazing materials would
not constitute an unreasonable hazard, as he determines after
notice and hearing.
